Navisworks System Requirements, tips and tricks, are you buying a new machine?

I am looking at buying a new notebook and have found what I believe to be a relatively well spec'd little unit. It should be mentioned that this is being bought as a portable small alternative to a tablet/ipad so I will be moving away from Apps like 360 glue for viewing NW files and using a Windows 8 based Navisworks application. Navisworks site recommends a min 3Ghz processor speed for next years 2015 Navisworks offerings, will I see any ill effects from the following spec (which includes only 1Ghz processor)?

AMD A4-1250 APU (1.0 GHz, 1 MB cache)

4 GB DDR3 (6 GB maximum installable RAM)

AMD Radeon HD 8210 Graphics Card

1366 x 768 Screen Res

Windows 8 OS

500 GB HDD, 5400 rpm

Borderline, *very* borderline.  4 GB RAM is almost unusable (limit of 6GB makes it useless for anything other than word processing and watching youtube...), and 5400 RPM drives are sllllooooowww.  Anything more than very simple models will be difficult to get around in.
